    Only drank on Friday night...I cannot believe it myself! Woke up Saturday with a queasy stomach and a pounding headache. Still am not sure if that was due to over-indulgence or a migraine. Therefore, big 0 on Saturday night and went to bed super early. Woke up Sunday with the same headache/mild migraine...it finally went away about 4pm yesterday.

    Monday - 0 and hopefully make it to the Y!

    Different weekend, same lushiness!

    Friday-4 tropical punch vodkas with sprite zero
    Saturday-4 sangrias at the shower,

    I read that fast and thought you had sangria in the shower, which made me think you drink in the shower to avoid detection :p

    Not too bad, for me, for a weekend...
    Friday=3 beers, 1 glass of wine
    Saturday=1 hot toddy
    Sunday=1 big glass of red

    I ran the Colder Boulder 5k Saturday and that was fun. Then I got talked into joining a test group for the new beachbody/insanity Max30. It sounds do-able (30 mins a day 5 days per week) but I am going to try the shakeology nonsense-no judgments :s

    Not sure what they say about drinking. I could try getting it down to 3 days per week...

    I love Shakeology, I have the tropical and when I actually drink it, it keeps me full pretty much all day. I'll be getting back to that and serious work outs after the New Year.

    Didn't fall asleep until 7 this morning =| hoping to fall asleep earlier tonight. Having some wine right now, maybe some prosecco after.

    HA Amy...I have totally taken a drink into the bathroom when getting showered, actually I do it quite often but I would NEVER take it into the actual shower for fear of watering it down :laugh: Good luck with the Max30, you have to keep us informed!!!!

    Oh Kat, 7am really??!!!, that SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi all,
    I am hanging in there. No zeros but coping.

    Kat you didn't fall asleep until 2 and a half hours after I get up.
    Amy good luck with the Max 30
    To all of you who are acheiving zeros great job
    To all of you who are striving for zeros and coming up short I say "we are what we are"
    To any of you who aren't going for zeros I say "Cheers!"

    Well my fellow lushes....looks like it will be plenty of zeroes in my near future. Just found out we are expecting baby #2 at the end of July.

    I will of course be keeping up with you and pretending I am lushing it up with ya! I am happy I did not limit my wine the past few months for sure now though!

    Mama Lush, I love your sentiments! :)

    Kat, falling asleep at 7am? Oh my goodness. That is like an hour after I get up.

    Amy, Max30 sounds interesting. I've tried to do at home workouts and follow a program, but I just get lazy and don't do anything. I have to go to the gym if I really want to workout. I figure if I drive all the way there I have to stay at least an hour!

    Chloe, CONGRATS!! How exciting!!!!

    Monday - 0 (and went to be at 9pm)
    Tuesday - 0

    Just found out that this weekend my hubby and I are supposed to go to a family reunion and it is ugly sweater themed. So, basically Saturday will be the death of me. We have his brother's graduation from KSU, his graduation party...and this reunion that we had no idea about. Oh goodness...

    Congrats Chloe!
    Bridget- This time of year is busy enough without adding to it. Way to go on the zeros tho!
    - Robin- Hang in there! The solstice is just around the corner!
    - Sydney- where are you?
    - Monday zero, same tonight. My wife has out-patient surgery tomorrow so I gotta be in shape to take care of her.

    Gary-hope everything goes well for your wife tomorrow! Len had a procedure last week, even though extremely minor I think I worried more than he did!!!

    I'm right here! 0 last night. shocking, I know! Maybe I'll go for another tonight. We shall see!
    Kat, sleep problems SUCK!
    Hi Mama Lush!
    Bridget, you sound way busy! I'm glad to be sticking close to home this time of year.
    Chloe....congrats!!! What a nice holiday surprise!
    Gary..great job on the 0's. You're a good man and husband. Hope all goes well with the wife.

    Last night=0
    because we finished the box of wine on Sunday. I think I will get another box. I am going to walk to the starting line of the Max30 thing, I think they want to start Dec. 15...
    Kat, that is good news about the shakes. I got chocolate because I wasn't sure what would taste best and most people liked chocolate.

    Gary, excellent job on the 0's! And hope everything goes well with your wife!!

    Syd, I am so busy that I'm surprised I'm not killing a bottle of wine a night. LOL. Holiday time stresses me out as it is. I'm sure I'll be redeeming my lush card here soon!

    Kat, I tried the Shakeology shakes, but I didn't care for them. Plus they're too $$ for me. I use the Body by Vi shakes occasionally. I get hooked on something for a while, then I just stop. I'll probably start using them again after the first of the year.

    I wasn't crazy about the chocolate. The tropical mixed with almond coconut milk is delicious!

    Another 7 am sleep time :s I have trouble sleeping even when husband is home but it's definitely worse when he's gone =\ I know it'll especially be tough after the new year when I shoot for zeros in the booze department. I'm going to try for some sort of schedule which I think will help along with exercise. It didn't help that I had a huge meltdown about Lily last night, she would have been 8 months this past Sunday. We will see what tonight brings as far as sleep. Meh. Husband comes home tomorrow night so that will be good :)<3

    Congrats Chloe <3

    Congratulations Chloe.
    Thanks for the reminder Gary. Maybe it will be a time of renewal for me.
    Syd I am jealous that you got a zero. I am trying tonight. I have a big glass of water in my hands when I am not typing.

    I love the lushes!!

    I am not feeling so hot. Some nausea and belly cramping. I have no idea what the hell is going on. I haven't eaten anything unusual. No actual puking but the thought of food sure makes me think I'm gonna :sick:

    Kat, I hope that you finally get a good night's sleep. 7am just sounds terrible :( I'm so sorry. <3

    Robin, when you open a bottle of wine you HAVE to drink it...I mean, it's the law ;)

    Worked out both Monday and last night. Tonight I'm going to just have a rest night, my legs are so sore!

    Thinking of you too, Kat. <3
    Feel better, Katie..yucky :(
    I had a crappy night sleep....but managed another 0 last night. We'll see what tonight brings. I have a busy day of errands then getting the hair done at the salon..you know how that usually leads to some wine. :drinker:

    Sorry, Kat, insomnia is the worst, be kind to yourself.
    I went to the liquor store last night and got the Blue Moon seasonal Horchata flavor, it is yummy! I had 3:)
    Did anyone see the last SOA? Don't tell me, I am watching tonight since my husband was working last night.

    Reading the posts reminds me why I love all you guys. We really care about each other.

    Our day started at 4:30am- to the outpatient OR at 5:30. Wife done with surgery by 9:15. Everything looked good but will have the biopsy early next week.
    -
    Zero Monday and Tuesday but bought a bottle of Irish Whiskey this afternoon. No doubt be in bed early.

    Thank you all so much <3<3<3

    Fell asleep around 4:30 this morning so at least it wasn't light out. Hoping for a more reasonable time tonight since husband will be home :)

    Hope you feel better Kate! Nausea is the worst :s

    Hope everything comes out great Ryze!

    Congrats to everyone with zeros! I'm sitting here with a glass of wine and I got a bottle of prosecco for when husband gets home :)

    I watched Sons, still can't believe it's over :(

    Gary, I am glad everything went well and hoping the biopsy is clean as a whistle!!!

    Belly still isn't 100% but much much better. I skipped the gym to give myself a little extra rest (EXCUSE :wink:)...but it is on tomorrow! I am off tomorrow, so I have no excuse. Lots to do. I have to clean for SIL and BIL visit saturday, and drive to my parents (45min each way) to take of their puppies, then back, more cleaning and food prep.

    Monday-0
    Tuesday-0
    Wednesday-0
    Thursday-0....we were going to to movie tavern to see Hunger games but I think I need another day of bland food and sadly no booze to make sure I am in tip top shape for saturday, there will be lots of beer and cocktails and pizza!!!

    We are brewing a beer for Lenny's dad's 60th saturday, so it should be fun!!!!

    Have a great day!!!

    Kate- sounds like a fun weekend for you! There must be something going around, everybody at my work is sick too! Yuck stay away from me :#

    Kat- I know I am so sad SOA is over :( Not sure how I feel about that ending, but I don't think I would've been happy with anything. Honestly out of all the shows we watch I think that is my ultimate fav.
